Correspondence Of the Democratic Advocated
WASHINGTON, June Is, 1887.
MEssRs EDIToRs In your issue of June
IL, inst, you speak as follows of the "Mary
land Democratic Club of Washington, d. c.:
1.-The Maryland Democrat c Club of Washington.
D. C., composed Of three hundred voters Ia this
State have declared for Second Assistant Postmast
er-Generai A. Leo Knott for Governor. The mem
bers OF the club are ne ,rly all occ,oldeSs and the
Democratic party OF Maryland don't propose that
politics. Oficious interference by Federal Office
holders under Republican rule did much TO destroy
Republican supremacy. and the Democratic party
should profit by that experience. Mr., Knott would
make very capable executive. but his candidacy
cannot be advanced by the advocacy of club Of
Federal oaiee-holders."
hope, Messrs. Editors, you have not con-
founded the Maryland Democratic Association
with the Maryland Democratic Club, as they
are entirely different organizations. The
MARYLAND Democratic Association of Wash
ington has been in existence for number of
years, and embraces IN its membership some
as staunch Democrats of the true stripe as can
be found in the State whose name it bears
szeh good Democrats as Col. John Brook
Boyle, of your city, for instance. This asso-
citation has done much good work in recent
contests with Republicanism and its allies,
the "Reiormersi in the State, and we point
with pride to the help we have given on those
occasions. 1.-The Maryland Democratic Club"
is composed of men who were new members
of this old and tried Association, and who
bolted from it because they could not dictate
to the good Democratic material OF which it
Incorporating other words they .'hocked" to
themselves. and assumed as near as possible
the name of the old association. The President
Of this new cllb is young man who aspires for
political notoriety through the medium Of his
boiling club. What wise head be has can
easily be seen by the eager rush be has made
to boom the Second Assistant Postmaster
General for Governor.
So, Messrs. Editors, please don't forget
that there is a great difference between the
two oreanizations-sOm such difference as
there is between a good Democrat who works
for his party and Reformer who works for
himself. A DEMOCRATIC VOTER.

What Will Printers Iso !:

The first book printed by type set
by the new type machine. owned by
parties in Washington City, has just
made its appearance in the market
The company was organized a year
Or more ago, but has been a year
getting ready to manufacture the
machines in considerable quantities.
They had first to make the tools
with which to make the machines.
Now that this is done they can begin
to turn them out by the hundred.
One lot Of over hundred machines
is now being made. They will cost
somewhere from $500 to $500 apiece,
but will enable one man to do the
work of ten in type setting. They
work like type writer, only thai,
they can be worked at higher rate
of speed. The operators on the
machines now being used can pro-
duce type at the rate of sixty words
minute, and with increased expe-
rlence they expect to get consider
able higher rate. This means, the
friends of the machine say, that from
three to six men will be able to set
up the tyne for the ordinary daily
paper. The machine casts the type
line at a time, and when the paper
is printed the type are melted down
and the metal used again the next
day. There has been in the past
twenty years a wonderful increase
in the facilities for producing news
papers with great rapidly in every
department except type setting. In
this department the old systems
have continued to prevail until now,
but if this machine does what is
claimed for it, it will prove a won
.derful time saver ia this particular,
and enable the publisher to lay the
news smoking hot before his read
ers within a few minutes after the
actual occurrence which it describes.
